Getting to know Emily Williams

Hi, I'm Emily. Something brought you to this website in search of a therapist or counselor. Maybe it was a single event or problem, like the loss of a loved one or a sudden change in job status. Or maybe you've been struggling with a multitude of stressors and are feeling burned out, anxious, depressed, disconnected, and fatigued. What would your life be like if you no longer experienced these issues? How do you get to that point? These questions are the foundation of my therapeutic approach, which is goal-oriented, solution-focused, and personalized to you as an individual. Your goals are unique, so it takes a unique approach to help you reach them. Together, we will identify your goals, the barriers you face, and how to overcome them to get to where you want to be. Our past and current interpersonal relationships influence our mental health and are often the source of past trauma. I focus on building interpersonal skills such as conflict resolution, communication, and identifying healthy and unhealthy relationship dynamics to help heal trauma and build a solid personal and professional support system to use long after our work together is completed. Since interpersonal relationships are so important to us as social creatures, the therapeutic relationship between client and therapist is key to healing. Not every therapist works for every client. If, during our work together, you feel this relationship is not a good fit, I am here to help you find someone who is. I hold a Master's in Counseling from Auburn University, which has equipped me with the knowledge and skills to support you effectively on your journey.

What should a new client know about working with you?

My goal is always to "work myself out of my job", and to provide you with the skills and confidence to maintain your lifestyle on your own, as well as develop internal and external support systems to lean on after our work is done. After an initial intake session, we will work together to identify specific goals to work on, and concrete indicators that would demonstrate that you have achieved your goals. As we work together, we will check in regularly on goal attainment and/or adjustment. Life has a way of throwing all kinds of wrenches in the best-laid plans, so I'm a big proponent of flexibility and adaptability in therapy, which are skills that you can take with you after our work together is done.

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.
